The Old Appliance Club (TOAC) was founded by southern California classic range
expert Jack Santoro, in 1994. With 47 years in the vintage range and refrigerator
business, Santoro originated the idea of an organization that would bring together old
appliance owners, collectors, dealers, historians, parts fabricators and

The
best money that I have ever spent so far on my Chambers model C gas range
has been the membership to The Old Appliance Club!

You have always provided unbelievable service and courtesy,
especially in this day and age. Thank you a thousand times for all of your
help and patience with me as I am getting my Chambers up and running!

appliance owners to come.Membership is

Volume X, Issue 4

The Old Road Home Hot-Cha Series Finale

Old appliance fans, here is the final
blue plate special of The Old Road Home vintage appliance magazine Hot
Cha Series.

The Hot-Cha series was published as a unique
celebration dedication for owners, users, buyers, sellers and restoration experts of

all old appliance lovers everywhere.

When The Old Road Home publication emerged some 12 years ago it started as
a half page Xeroxed newsletter. This last edition with 4 additional pages is a
whopping 44 pages jam-packed with all the old time home appliance goodies.

MAGIC CHEF FANS  See a brace of the over-sized
1930s six burner, double oven with C-curve warming closets.

The
MAGIC CHEF 6300. This Grand Jewel of the old stove world came in either 6 or 8
burner models. This six burner 6300 is all white with chrome trim and black ribbon edging.
It has been perfectly restored and will be utilized again in a custom built home in Texas.
In the meantime it is patiently waiting in an old Banana Vault.

There
is a great mini-story enclosed which charts out the details including the talented
restoration specialist that took charge of the complete refurbishing. Everything on this
Magic Chef 6300 works like brandee-new and will for decades more of Happy Cooking!

The
MAGIC CHEF 1000 is the next old stove beauty. THIS IS THE VERY LAST
MAGIC CHEF 1000 EVER PRODUCED! We were stymied to receive a personal letter from
the grandson of George Clark who was the founder of the incredible Clark Jewell Stove
Company. When George Clark retired, he was presented with the final 1000 series Magic Chef
stove ever to leave the factory production line.

FEATURE  The Victrola by Mike Arnold 
Mike Monitor top Arnold stops by to tell us about Model VV  11 Victrola.
Recordings made almost 100 years ago still sound crystal clear on this tall, dark mahogany
beauty. All old audio fans will adore reading and seeing this fabulous machine that looks
like it was just unpacked from a shipping crate ready to spin its first record.

STILL ALIVE AND WELL  Check out this banquet
of fabulous antique appliances that surely will make your eyes pop out.

First
displayed is a rare marbleized porcelain 1935 Deco Style Norge refrigerator. What a
finish! Then, not to be outdone there is a 1933 Detroit Gas range with an incredible mother
of pearl relief in the raised enamel doors. Nothing like this will ever be produced
again. Few of these around and in such superb condition.

Just
when you are passing out over those, look at the flip page of the spread and you
will see an incredible dripping in chrome 30s waffle / sandwich maker + a most
unusual 1951 Westinghouse Electric range. The ultra-cool part about this unit is that a
stool fits under one side of the stove. Most people have never seen a stove like this
before. (The seat was chrome with red or black vinyl.)

DOUBLING VISION - HOT POINT 1920s ELECTRIC RANGES - From
West Virginia you will view two 1920s  left and right handed Hotpoint electric
ranges tied together for a whopping combination of double ovens, double roll top warmers,
a deepwell cooker and 7 burners. Its an awesome sight to see such a classic design
with so much cooking power all in one kitchen.

THE RONSON FOODMATIC  You may have never
heard of it before. Well, neither have we until Jean Barrett sent us a picture of her
Foodmatic. This oldie but goodie even sports a cabinet with all the attachments beneath
it. The main mount for everything is recessed on top. Small appliances like this rarely
surface in such complete shape so make a point of studying it, just in case you ever run
into one and have a chance to buy it. It really did exist and it sure is slick.

FEATURE  MOTHERLODE Finds a New Home  Yes!
Chip Ruhl is back. Remember he rescued several tons of stoves from the scrap heap last
year? Well, Chip has pictures and more news about his personal stove and refrigerator
adoption effort that you might find quite startling. There is even a picture of a fat
Raccoon peering from the rafters of the barn over this gigantic arrangement of antique
stoves and refrigerators. Need some old stoves? Get them from the Chipper! Also in a
separate feature is Chips cousin Mel Goldys 193 Ivanhoe 3 burner Kerosene
stove. It works and is in super shape.

SERELCO Super-Chief Reflected Heat Stove  WEIRD
but wonderful is the only way to describe this late 20s apartment table top stove. One
burner with electric oven featuring speed, economy and safety was the way it was
advertised. This survivor is in wonderful condition for its age too.

FEATURE  The Apthrope Files  Antique Appliance
detective James Apthorpe has discovered the Foreman pre-collectibles of
the future! Read all about it and get in on the game while the getting is still
good. Jim also sent in pictures of the famous G.E. Toaster with oven warmer beneath it
from the early 60s and a Dominion Waffle Make Circa 1928 with crusted chrome body and
porcelain top insert w/floral design and thermometer. He unearths such fascinating old
appliances, typewriters, radios, fans, etc. etc. Join Jim on this old appliance safari
through Florida.

KELVINATOR 4 IN 1 Refrigerator Ad from June 1934 
Happy Days! This is a terrific ad that you are sure to enjoy
from so long ago. Many of these old Kelvinators are still running like a clock too. If you
were around when these were being produced, you will recognize it just as soon as you see
it.

WHATS FOR SALE? This time around we have pull-enty of
goodies! Antique stoves both large and small - Chambers,
Kelvinators, ANTIQUE bathtubs, vacuums, washers, a Chambers Imperial (totally restored),
Estate ranges, Electrochef, Frigidaire, G.E. fridges, Nutone range and so very much more.
If you want the perfect item, that few people own, this is the marketplace to track it
down.

SOURCES - If you need parts, service or
information you will discover the help you need as always in The Old Road Home. New parts
like the spring for the Chambers B folding top, open manifold range valves, china OKM salt
and pepper shakers, special safety valves and lots of other goodies are all listed in this
issue. Again, if you cannot find what you need, all you have to do is e-mail us at toac@sbcglobal.net and we will see if we can track it
down for you.

Even
more when it gets down to the detail exploration (after the picture looking is over)
check out It Came from the Mailbag, News From the Trenches, Tips and Tricks to test your
Fridge, the modern Flexo-Try inside a Ripleys Believe It of Not ad and the Auto Wash
Bowl (the ultimate or, strangest way to wash a car from the 1920s). More below...

Thank
you Peter Mintun for this rare picture!

THE OLD THE ODD AND THE UNUSUAL  Read all
about the RCA Globe-Trotter portable radio and the Knapp-Monarch round, flat
work ironer!!! This is the first time in ten years that we have ever published as odd of
an appliance as the round ironer.

Who won the Pimple Prize Contest? from the last
issue and the surprise behind-the-scenes pimple information.
